﻿The future of Sim-U-Kraft...SIm-U-Kraft is no longer being developed by Scott Hather, it is now "Open-Source", so anyone with Java programming knowledge is free to play with the code, make you're own version of the mod, re-make it, use parts of it for another mod etc. I would suggest you give it a different name, so that people know that it's not the same Sim-U-Kraft here.

The source code is ready and waiting over at BitBucket https://bitbucket.org/satscape/sim-u-kraft/overview I’ve added comments to the code, it includes the textures, skins, sound effects etc. If you’re not into programming, but know a mod author who might be interested, send them the above URL and they’ll know what to do with it.

What is Sim-U-Kraft? (no relation to Simcraft)It extends and changes the Single player game-play by adding aspects of ‘Sim city’ and ‘The Sims’ to the game. As the player, you’ll employ “Sim-U-Folks” (NPCs) to do the following: Builder, Lumberjack, Miner, Wheat,Pumpkin,Melon,Potato,Carrot,Sugar cane, and Cactus Farmers, Baker, Soldier, Shepherd, Grocer, Courier, Builder’s merchant, Butcher, Pig farmer, Cattle farmer, Chicken farmer, Terraformer, Glass maker, Dairy farmer, Cheesemaker…more added with each update! Start a new game or an existing map and “Sim-U-Folks” will wander into town. As you start off with only 10.00 Sim-U-Credits, the first thing would be to employ a Sim-U-Folk to build a house, they will then move in and start paying you rent each day. You can then use this money to employ more Sim-U-Folks to build up a huge city.

You’ll need materials to build your city, so mark out an area with Sim-U-Marker posts, place a mining-box down and employ a miner to dig up tons of materials. You may also need to employ a lumberjack too for the wood-based buildings. All this building, lumber-jacking and mining makes the Sim-u-folks hungry, so employ a farmer and baker to make bread for their hungry mouths or they’ll starve to death! If playing in non-peaceful mode, you wouldn’t want a creaper to blow up your folk’s houses, so build a barracks and train up a few soldiers to patrol the town to slay those creapers.

The Sim-U-Folks may like each other so much, they’ll get married or just move in with each other, either way, they may have some children too! So if you want a little help in single player building a small town, or want to make a huge thriving metropolis, Sim-U-Kraft is here to help you. Sim-U-Kraft mod for Minecraft does NOT modify the minecraft.jar file and only requires Forge to be installed.

Unzip the above file to your desktop, it will give you another zip file and one folder called ‘simukraft’

Copy *that* zip file and the folder to your .minecraft/mods/ folder.

Do not unzip that file. Here’s a screenshot of what it should look like.

NOTE: No need to put anything into the Minecraft.jar file, the Forge installer will do everything for you. You’ll know it’s worked when you start a new world or open an existing world, it will ask you if you want to run Sim-U-Kraft on this world or not. For further help and support, see below! To un-install, simply drag the Sim-U-Kraft-0.x.x.zip file out of your mods folder into the recycle bin.
